Interesting night on the farm tonight. Scoreboard Charlotte - Kopech Birmingham - Flores Winston Salem - Battenfield Kannapolis - Harrington Great Falls - Stiever AZ - Madrigal supposedly playing

Glad he's playing tonight, but does he really need a couple games in AZ?

Granted he's 23, but Bennett Sousa: 10IP, 3H, 0R, 0BB, 16K so far at Great Falls

If you live in a chicagoland market, then you can get WGN with an HD antenna. I do. It comes in quite well.

I believe this is the first time the fair play tiebreaker has been used to decide who moves out of the group stage.

You mentioned how Rooney's transfer to Man U was inevitable. I've always wondered how fans of the lesser known teams deal with knowing any time they have a good player, they will be sold to one of the giants within a few years. Does it make it harder to remain a loyal fan to a team like Everton?

Charlotte's two all stars: Roach: 8IP 6H 2BB 1R 5K Viera: 1IP 2H 0BB 0R 1K

I don't know about the scout seats, but I went to a double header last year and they stopped selling beer (and most everything else) after the second inning of the second game. We had the grand idea of just going to the second game so we basically got screwed.

Curbelo has 10 errors in 20 games.

Booker 4-5 with a double, a stolen base, an error and an outfield assist. Gettin his name in the box score!

Birmingham now has 6 starting pitchers. Dunning/Cease/Hansen/Flores/Clarkin/Guerrero. I wonder which of Clarkin or Guerrero gets moved to the pen. They also have 5 outfielders but they'll probably do a rotation similar to what WS was doing.

Charlotte up to 2 interesting hitters!

OSU will have to beat MSU twice to advance to the finals. Could see a Pilkington vs Madrigal matchup.

'05 when he went on an inning long mini-rant about how much better we were than the redsox. Better starting pitcher, better bullpen, better situational hitting... he was proven right in the playoffs. And of course "WHAT ARE YOU DOING, WEGNER?!"

Nice. Upping his trade value!

Tough to argue when they have the lowest K rate and highest walk rate in the league.

The Knights game that they showed on TV in Chicago where Kopech pitched, he didn't appear to be over throwing or maxing out every pitch to me. It was fairly smooth and easy motion and he was 95-98 with good movement.

Russia beats Egypt and now has 6 points. They're going to advance. Likely to be crushed in the knockout round but good for them I guess.

This has bothered me about Benetti as well, haven't been able to figure out how to describe it. I find DJ and Farmer pretty funny. I think when Farmer retires, Benetti goes to the radio with DJ and we can get a better guy to pair with stone in the TV booth.

Pilkington is pitching for Miss St.

I think Bazox call of Belgium might have been a good one. They are my pick to win the whole thing.

I realize the contracts like Hossa's werent given out in good faith and that something needed to be done to stop them from happening. But the contracts were legal at the time. The recapture penalty should have had a grandfather clause or something.

Having a surplus also could save you in a year where you lose one of your main guys for an extended period. I believe the Cardinals won the world series in a season where wainwright missed the whole year.
